A Honda Accord heading south on Rampart ran the red light at the intersection about 2:20 p.m. and struck the passenger side of a sports utility vehicle causing the SUV to flip and land on its roof.

A car crash at Collins and Rampart roads injured seven people — including four juveniles — Sunday afternoon, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.

A Honda Accord heading south on Rampart ran the red light at the intersection about 2:20 p.m. and struck the passenger side of a sports utility vehicle causing the SUV to flip and land on its roof, Lt. Derrick Mitchell Sr. said.

The SUV was carrying four juveniles and two adults, Mitchell said.

However, the driver of the Honda was in life-threatening condition after the crash. She was taken to UF Health Jacksonville.

Mitchell didn’t immediately know the ages of the juveniles, but that they and one of the adults were taken to Orange Park Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. The other adult received treatment at the scene but wasn’t transported to the hospital.

That intersection is a nightmare. It was poorly managed by traffic signals before the I-295/Collins Rd opening and now it's worse. Traffic backs up to I-295 every afternoon and the lights dont cycle long enough for the heavy lanes to get through. And to make matters worse, Collins Rd. West after Rampart merges back into one lane making for some really tense merging and cut-offs by desperate drivers. I saw this coming a long time ago.

I can only hope the traffic mgmt in Duval County will revisit this intersection to do something about it. Until then, people will continue to get frustrated and take matters into their own hands resulting in accidents like these.
